Thiago Jung Bauermann <bauerman@br.ibm.com> Implement support for PowerPC BookE masked watchpoints. gdb/ * NEWS: Mention masked watchpoint support. Create "Changed commands" section. * breakpoint.h (struct breakpoint_ops) <works_in_software_mode>: New method. Initialize to NULL in all existing breakpoint_ops instances. (struct breakpoint) <hw_wp_mask>: New field. * breakpoint.c (is_masked_watchpoint): Add prototype. (update_watchpoint): Don't set b->val for masked watchpoints. Call breakpoint's breakpoint_ops.works_in_software_mode if available. (watchpoints_triggered): Handle the case of a hardware masked watchpoint trigger. (watchpoint_check): Likewise. (works_in_software_mode_watchpoint): New function. (insert_masked_watchpoint, remove_masked_watchpoint) (resources_needed_masked_watchpoint) (works_in_software_mode_masked_watchpoint, print_it_masked_watchpoint) (print_one_detail_masked_watchpoint, print_mention_masked_watchpoint) (print_recreate_masked_watchpoint, is_masked_watchpoint): New functions. (masked_watchpoint_breakpoint_ops): New structure. (watch_command_1): Check for the existence of the `mask' parameter. Set b->ops according to the type of hardware watchpoint being created. * ppc-linux-nat.c (ppc_linux_insert_mask_watchpoint) (ppc_linux_remove_mask_watchpoint) (ppc_linux_masked_watch_num_registers): New functions. (_initialize_ppc_linux_nat): Initialize to_insert_mask_watchpoint, to_remove_mask_watchpoint and to_masked_watch_num_registers. * target.c (update_current_target): Mention to_insert_mask_watchpoint, to_remove_mask_watchpoint, and to_masked_watch_num_registers. (target_insert_mask_watchpoint, target_remove_mask_watchpoint) (target_masked_watch_num_registers): New functions. * target.h (struct target_ops) <to_insert_mask_watchpoint>, <to_remove_mask_watchpoint>, <to_masked_watch_num_registers>: New methods. (target_insert_mask_watchpoint, target_remove_mask_watchpoint) (target_masked_watch_num_registers): Add prototypes. gdb/doc/ * gdb.texinfo (Set Watchpoints): Document mask parameter. (PowerPC Embedded): Mention support of masked watchpoints.
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
